< Ezekiel 10 >
1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
Ndakatarisa, ndikaona chinhu chakafanana nechigaro choushe chesafire pamusoro pedenga raiva pamusoro pemisoro yamakerubhimi.
2 And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, [even] under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter [them] over the city. And he went in in my sight.
Jehovha akati kumurume uya akanga akapfeka mucheka wakaisvonaka, “Enda pakati pamavhiri ari munyasi mamakerubhi. Uzadze maoko ako namazimbe anopisa anobva pamakerubhi ugoaparadzira pamusoro peguta.” Iye akapinda ini ndakatarira.
3 Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
Zvino makerubhi akanga akamira parutivi rwezasi kwetemberi murume paakapinda, uye gore rakazadza ruvazhe rwomukati.
4 Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, [and stood] over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD’s glory.
Ipapo kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakakwira pamusoro pamakerubhi kukaswedera kuchikumbaridzo chetemberi. Gore rakazadza temberi, uye ruvazhe rukazadzwa nokupenya kwokubwinya kwaJehovha.
5 And the sound of the cherubims’ wings was heard [even] to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
Mubvumo wamapapiro amakerubhi wainzwika kusvikira kuruvazhe rwokunze, senzwi raMwari Wamasimba Ose kana achitaura.
6 And it came to pass, [that] when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
Jehovha akati arayira murume akanga akapfeka mucheka wakaisvonaka, achiti, “Tora moto pakati pamavhiri, kubva pamakerubhi,” murume akapinda mukati akamira parutivi rwevhiri.
7 And [one] cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that [was] between the cherubims, and took [thereof], and put [it] into the hands of [him that was] clothed with linen: who took [it], and went out.
Ipapo rimwe ramakerubhi rakatambanudzira ruoko rwaro kumoto wakanga uri pakati pawo. Akatora mumwe moto ndokuuisa mumaoko omurume akanga akapfeka mucheka wakaisvonaka, iye ndokuutora ndokuenda nawo panze.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man’s hand under their wings.
(Pasi pamapapiro amakerubhi paionekwa chinhu chainge maoko omunhu.)
9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels [was] as the colour of a beryl stone.
Ndakatarisa, ndikaona parutivi rwamakerubhi mavhiri mana, rimwe vhiri parutivi rwekerubhi rimwe nerimwe, mavhiri acho aivaima kunge ibwe rekrisorite.
10 And [as for] their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
Pakuonekwa kwawo, mana acho akanga akafanana; rimwe nerimwe rakanga rakaita sevhiri riri mukati merimwe vhiri.
11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
Paaifamba aigona kuenda neimwe yenzira ina kwakanga kwakatarisa makerubhi; mavhiri haana kutsauka pakufamba kwaiita makerubhi. Makerubhi akaenda munzira ipi zvayo kwakanga kwakatarira musoro, asingatsauki pakufamba kwawo.
12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, [were] full of eyes round about, [even] the wheels that they four had.
Miviri yawo yose, pamwe chete nemisana yawo, maoko awo namapapiro awo, zvakanga zvakazara nameso, zvakanga zvakadarowo namavhiri awo ari mana.
13 As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.
Ndakanzwa mavhiri achitumidzwa zita rokuti “mavhiri okumonereka.”
14 And every one had four faces: the first face [was] the face of a cherub, and the second face [was] the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
Kerubhi rimwe nerimwe rakanga rine zviso zvina: Chimwe chiso chakanga chiri chekerubhi, chechipiri chakanga chiri chiso chomunhu, chiso chechitatu chakanga chiri cheshumba, chiso chechina chakanga chiri chegondo.
15 And the cherubims were lifted up. This [is] the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
Ipapo makerubhi akabhururuka achikwira kumusoro. Izvi ndizvo zvisikwa zvipenyu zvandakaona ndiri paRwizi rweKebhari.
16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
Makerubhi aiti ofamba, mavhiri aiva parutivi rwawo ofambawo; makerubhi aiti akatambanudza mapapiro awo kuti abhururuke kubva pasi, mavhiri akanga asingabvi parutivi rwawo.
17 When they stood, [these] stood; and when they were lifted up, [these] lifted up themselves [also: ] for the spirit of the living creature [was] in them.
Kana makerubhi akamira, iwo aimirawo; uye makerubhi akabhururuka, iwo aisimuka pamwe chete nawo, nokuti mweya wezvisikwa zvipenyu wakanga uri maari.
18 Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.
Ipapo kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakabva pamusoro pechikumbaridzo chetemberi kukamira pamusoro pamakerubhi.
19 And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also [were] beside them, and [every one] stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel [was] over them above.
Ndichakatarisa izvi, makerubhi akatambanudza mapapiro awo ndokubhururuka kubva pasi, uye paaienda, mavhiri aiendawo nawo. Akandomira pamukova wesuo rokumabvazuva kweimba yaJehovha, uye kubwinya kwaMwari waIsraeri kwakanga kuri pamusoro pawo.
20 This [is] the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and I knew that they [were] the cherubims.
Izvi ndizvo zvisikwa zvipenyu zvandakanga ndaona pasi paMwari waIsraeri paRwizi rweKebhari, uye ndikaziva kuti akanga ari makerubhi.
21 Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man [was] under their wings.
Rimwe nerimwe rakanga rine zviso zvina namapapiro mana, uye pasi pamapapiro awo pakanga pane zvairatidzika samaoko omunhu.
22 And the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
Zviso zvawo zvakanga zvichiratidzika sezviya zvandakanga ndamboona paRwizi rweKebhari. Chimwe nechimwe chaifamba chakananga mberi.
